A day after a miscommunication with pitching coach Carl Willis led to the wrong reliever entering the game, Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona said he apologized for the mistake, which played a role in the Reds' 7-4 comeback victory.

After the Indians' bullpen gave up seven runs in the ninth to turn a four-run lead into a 7-4 loss to the Reds, manager Terry Francona said a miscommunication led to the team warming up Dan Otero, known as "OT," instead of Oliver Perez, who's called "OP."
